The only way to get rid of the yellow paint is to either make better readable levels that are less realistic like Zelda dungeons. Or make everything climbable like in Assassins Creed. But then you get an entirely different game. Unfortunately people are dumb. Developers find out during play testing that a significant percentage of players will get stuck somewhere and then they add yellow paint.
This line was recorded when the entrance was more natural looking, but play testers had trouble finding it. The entrance was changed to be more obvious, but they didn’t have time to rerecord the lines and it still made enough sense, so it was left.
Also, having played Bungie’s previous FPS, Marathon… yeah, there’s some maze-hell levels in that game. Everyone memes on Colony Ship For Sale, Cheap, but Fire! Fire! Fire! Fire! Fire! was a real hell to figure out without guides. I understand wanting players to actually finish their games.

I’m one of these dummies. I can’t help it. I’m constantly lost in video games. Hell, I’m halfway lost most of the time outside of video games.
